ESP LTD M1000 Electric Guitar Reviews
After a lot of research I chose this beast of a guitar for several reasons. Looks aside (and it DOES look better in person), the features on this axe are top-shelf and hard to beat. The EMG 81 combo just scream, be it rhythm or leads. The Floyd is very stable and stayed in tune even after trying to make it go out ( I used this guitar at practice the other night, and intentionally tried to make it lose tuning with extreme bar antics and dives). The U shape neck-thru was ultimately the deciding factor. I'd had an F200 (bolt-on) and loved it so I figured the neck-thru would be even better....IT IS! This is one of the best playing necks I've ever played. It rivals my Jackson DKMG with it's quickness and feel. It's a very comfortable neck, and after 2 hours my fret hand felt no fatigue at all. Right out of the case (I ordered the Gator Universal along with it) it was ready to go; in-tune with perfect action...I didn't have to do anything at all to it. I run this amazing guitar through a Bugera 6262 half-stack; a Fender Roc Pro 700 and a Fender Frontman 15 and it sounds incredible through them all. After an hour at practice, I added my Line 6 Floor Pod Plus to the mix and every preset I used sounded powerful and clear. Distortion was nasty with the 81s, and cleans were bright and snappy. The fret height is spot-on, with no drag whatsoever; playing chords or soloing is effortless. I can't say enough how much I love this already, and I just received it Thursday (today is Saturday). The neck heel is sleek and make reaching the upper registry a breeze. This is definitely going to be a workhorse for me, and I'll most likely get another one soon (I have the see-thru black; if Zzounds offers another color, I'm on it!). For the features, playabilty and sound? There aren't too many that can compete with this. This neck on this guitar is better than my Schecter Syn Custom (also purchased from Zzounds). If you're a shredder like me, you'll absolutely love this Ltd!
